If I Could Tell The Truth

Em G D D If I could tell the truth Em People just might see G Who I really am A Not who I have to be G A D I get so damn tired Em Of playing by the rules G A Afraid of what I'd lose D If I could tell the truth D A G Nobody wants to listen D When it comes down to this Em G They'd rather take the truth and twist it A Than to tell it like it is D A G A I don't know how we got here Bm A G There's really no excuse Em I do it to get by D G A But I wouldn't live this lie D If I could tell the truth BREAK Em G D D If I could tell the truth Em Girl we'd end up in a fight G And I would still be wrong A And you would still be right G A D We could stay right here Em Another year or two G A But I'm already gone D If I could tell the truth D A G Nobody wants to listen D When it comes down to this Em G They'd rather take the truth and twist it A Than to tell it like it is D A G A I don't know how we got here Bm A G There's really no excuse Em I do it to get by D G A But I wouldn't live this lie D A-D If I could tell the truth Em I'd do it to get by D G A But I wouldn't live this lie D Em G D D If I could tell the truth
